I’ve started telling non-techie people that you don’t interview for software engineering jobs: you audition for them.

They get it.

Definition of Audition: "practical demonstration of the candidate's suitability and skill"

Nope, Audition doesn't sound right.

Nah. Auditions demonstrate skills necessary to do the actual job. Tech interviews demonstrate ability to regurgitate Leetcode questions.
